Recovering Unsaved Printed Files?

I typed a paper using Word and printed it off yesterday and my friend accidently threw it away. I didnt save it though and I was wondering if there is anyway I can find it and reprint it...like a list of prints in the past or something? thanks

I don't believe so. In as much as you never saved the file (that wasn't very smart) it was never written to disk so I don't even think a file recovery program wold work. I can't believe you wrote a paper and never once saved your work. What would happen if the program crashed or your mac froze up and you needed to restart? Now all may not be lost if you can get a scanner and OCR (optical character recognition) software. Scan the paper and have the OCR software convert it to editable text. You got a nice friend though.

Recover unsaved RDMP4 file for Video Recording

Hello
Today's frustration with Adobe Captivate 7...
I was recording a Video Demonstration. I have been doing these all along without difficulty.
Today, I started it, performed a number of software steps (which will take a LOT to get back to the beginning of) and then pressed END.
Normally, this switches me to an Editor view and allows me to save as CPVC file.
Today, the window just froze and made no further progress. I patiently waited for about 10-15 minutes to see if it might recover on its own. Nada.
I closed the window via Windows Task Manager (only recourse I could find).
I have located the cached VideoRecording_nnnnnnn.RDMP4 file in Windows Local Temp area. It is not that big, 800k. The recording was only about 5 minutes long.
Is there a tool or method I can use to continue the life cycle from Cached to CPVC file? Or is it a loss?
I have tried opening it with the captivate.exe program file but that does nothing of note. Doesn't even open Captivate and complain.

Just a little more information. I used 7zip to take a peek at what is inside the stuck one and the cache image from a successful recording/saved CPVC file from last week.
they both look the same, just two files:
- SubRecordingVideo.mp4 (some number of kbytes)
- SubMouseData.md
That's all there is. Surely, something in the Captivate tools bin can open this and complete it. I know you can ZIP up the cache archive and turn that into a CPTX file with good success. How about these?

Recover unsaved TextEdit files

Is there any way to recover text from TextEdit if I accidently clicked "Don't Save" ? The file wasn't saved at all when I clicked it, and it would be helpful to recover it. Any help will be appreciated.

No. It only exists in RAM until you save it and it's written to disk. Thus, it no longer exists.

Recover Unsaved Photoshop Files

I was working on a photoshop project and then saved it as a JPEG, but accidentally closed it out without saving it as a project (.psd)... how do I recover the file? Please help!!!!

If you were using Photoshop, perhaps you might want to ask in the Photoshop Forum, and not this forum, which is the Lightroom forum.

Recover unsaved file

Hi everyone,
I'm using Microsoft Word 2008 on a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard. Just today I closed a document without saving it and am hoping there's some way to recover it. I've tried searching for AutoRecovery files, but it's not coming up. I haven't restarted my computer yet in the hopes that there might be some way to recover the file.
Thanks for your help!

Recovering lost pdf file

Is there any way to recover a lost file after a crash if one ALSO accidentally clicked 'no' to the promopt to open an unsaved file? Are these stored somewhere and therefore recoverable? Thank you

Not very likely, but you can try the temp folder, which is:
C:/Users/_USER NAME_/AppData/Local/Temp/Adobe/Acrobat/11.0

Recover crashed pages file

I am using Pages. it suddently crashed. How can i recover unsaved file?

How many times will it be necessary to repeat that the first thing to do after opening a new document is to save it even if it contains a single character.
Then, save at least every ten minutes.
Happily, Apple took care of that and decided that users are so dumb that the system must do most of the tasks by itself.
Now, no need to save, big brother does it for you. Say thank you to dumb users which pushed Apple to do that.
The positive point is that the mac story got a new chapter
Before 2002 we said Apple Works
Since 2002 we said I work
Since 2011/07/20 we may say again Apple Works.

Can I recover unsaved work after a restart of my computer

I was working with Final Draft 8 and before I could save my work the spinning pinwheel appeared. I restarted my computer hoping that my work would pop back up. I've done a shutdown when this happened before and was able to have my windows with my work reappear, albeit the wheel was still spinning, and my work was lost.
I want to know if there is a way that I can recover unsaved work after restarting my computer, or if there is a way to access my temporary file folder and search for my document there. This seems like a stupid question I know, but I'm so desperate and would just like to know if there is a way to access my unsaved work. Is it gone forever? Unsaved work doesn't get tossed into the trash, so where exactly does it go? Is like an erasure?
Thank you.

Make sure your auto save function is on, http://support.finaldraft.com/article.aspx?cid=1001&aid=264 if it is on you should have a copy saved on you MacBook Air, do a spotlight search.

Recover a single file in Content Services

I've been asked to document how we would go about recovering a single file in Content Services. The Trash/Archive angle I'm clear on, but what about an extreme case. Lets say that someone created a file, trashed it, emptied the trash, and then it expired from the Archive before the user realized that they needed the file.
Is it possible, and if so how would one go about getting the file back assuming that there is a full db backup once a day?
Would enabling BFILE aging help? If so, how?
On a related note: If archive is set to expire content after 1 month, but BFILE aging is turned off, when does deleted content get purged from the Archive? It's not 1 month, as I have deleted files in the Archive going back to January.

Archive expiration and BFile aging are orthogonal. BFile pushes the LOBs of documents that are in the archive to bfile. Archive expiration deletes files from the archive after the configured time. If this is not the behaviour you are seeing please file a TAR and they can help check whether your system is configured correctly or if you are running into a bug.

How to merge 2 pdf forms into one print file ?

Hi Stuart. Did you find a solution for this problem? Iam facing the same.

How can I use time machine to recover my iWeb09 files?

I read that iWeb stores one's website pages in the domain folder which can be located at ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb. Can I use time machine to recover my iWeb09 files? If so, how? -I tried. I entered my Time Machine back up, and went back in time and brought the domain file forward but it opened only my current site pages, not the ones I am trying to recover. And it says the Domain file was last modified in October 2007 which is crazy because I've been using iWeb a lot and have published many pages. It seems like the uncorrupted pages, which I am trying to recover, existed somewhere on my computer at one point in time and space, less than a week ago, becuse I just published my site to a new hosting service since Apple will soon stop web hosting. So why can I not find them using time machine?

I continued searching and read another person's advise to down load an app named "Find File," then search for .sites. She said spotlight doesn't always find all files. So I did and sure enough, when I searched for .sites I found another Domain package, which I have no idea how it was created but which, it ends up, was the one actually being used by iWeb. So I went to that package then did the time machine and went back to before my web pages became corrupted. I had to delete corrupt blog pages out of my website menu to get iWeb to upload the other page changes even to a local folder.
So I went to that newly found Domain, went back in time, then brought that forward and as you pointed out the domain package had the parts of the pages, the files and jpegs, but not the structure/layout of the pages. So, I guess I gave up on finding the old pages.
Those pages still exist on the Apple hosting server but iWeb doesn't not reverse publication. Cyberduck would bring back the files and bits and peices but again not the pages as a total entity. I'm preparing for the end of Apple website hosting (next month?) and am republishing my old site. I decided to use a new domain name. So my entire original site is still totally intact on the web under the original domain name, on my mobile me site, I guess it will be there till sometime in June?
My problems started when I tried to publish my website to the new server. It just would not publish the whole website in one session. So I decided to do it a few pages at a time. Some pages went up, but as I added more, for some unknown reason the, blog pages, (about 70 subpages), which had aleardy uploaded just fine to the new server, became corrupt and locked up iWeb. Of course once I deleted the corrupt pages I didn't want to continue publishing the site to the host until I found and reinserted uncorrupted pages, knowing publishing changes would delete the already published pages.
At first I thought it was the hosting server's fault, but when I discovered that it wouldn't publish even to a local fold I was able to locate the cause within iWeb, deleted those pages then tested by publishing to a local folder. iWeb worked locally, so I knew I had found the problem pages. Well this is way more than you wanted to know. Thanks for your advise but I'll just start the blogging pages over.

I've used an external drive for time machine which has important files on it. After trying to back up my computer, it suddenly needed to be "repaired" by utilities. Now it's not being "seen" at all! How do I recover my important files off the drive?

Recover Deleted Offline File in Window's 7

Documents that were suppose to sync with the server had not synced in months. The filess I am sure were being saved to the offline file cache. The offline file cache was deleted by using microsoft hotfix 50561 (kb230738), reinitalizing the cache and correcting
the save path. The documents are very important. I researched and found the xp tool for recovering deleted offline files. csccmd.exe by using the command
csccmd.exe /extract /target:c:\docs /recurse
Is There a tool like this for windows 7? is there a way to recover the lost files. Previous versions and system restore was not enabled and I have not been able to enable then.

Unfortunately you can't. Except if you made a back up of your iPad on iTunes, restore it with the last save.
